Set up areas

Name the neighbourhoods and regions shown on calls, and map the game's zone codes to them.

Areas are the neighbourhoods and regions shown beside a call's city and county, such as Sandy Shores, Mission Row or Paleto Bay. They are a lookup list under Admin, Lists, Areas.

Add the native areas

New communities start with the 91 San Andreas areas. Existing communities are never filled automatically: press Load Native Defaults on the Areas list to add the missing names.

Load Native Defaults on Streets also adds 16 streets the starter list was missing, such as Abattoir Ave, Hangman Ave and Senora Way, without duplicates.

Zone codes

Each area can carry a zone code, the game's own code for the zone (for example SANDY), so a game integration that reports a zone code shows your community's name for it.

  • Leave the code empty for a custom map.
  • Several codes can share one area, separated by |.
  • Renaming an area keeps its code, and an unknown code shows no area.

Postals can name an area, which then fills a call's Area; see Map postals to streets.
